president obama goes after romney and ryan in the way the democrats go after the gop when it comes to entitlements, but as we know, last summer, president obama was happy to make serious changes to medicare in exchange for getting a grand bargain. if he is reelected, he will go back to the table and i am sure the same questions will be on the tae again he has said he is open to making those changes. >> let me explain the difference between what obama would do with a $716 billion, and what romney and ryan would do. obama takes the money out of medicare and reduces the payments to doctors and hospitals which obviously reduces services. one sixth of all hospitals will have to shut down or refuse the elderly. he takes the money, and the 716 he saves, and places it into a new entitlement called obamacare, which will fund the uninsured. good cause but it takes from a and gives to b. what ryan does, in the original plan, he takes the same amount, and put it back into the medicare trust fund so it is a way to invest in the future. medicare is a way to see that we are going to cut a little now

campaign 2012 heated up this week after governor mitt romney selected wisconsin representative paul ryan as his running mate. ryan is a roman catholic, and with vice president joe biden on the democratic side, this is the first time that both parties have catholics on the ticket. ryan agrees with his church's opposition to abortion and gay marriage, but he has generated debate in some catholic circles for his economic views. as chief author of the republican budget plan, ryan supports funding cuts for many social programs. some catholics, including bishops, argued that would hurt the poor. ryan's response -- >> as a catholic in public life, my own personal thinking on these issues has been guided by my understanding of the church's social teaching. simply put, i do not believe that the preferential option for the poor means a preferential option for b government. >> joining me with more on this is kevin eckstrom, editor-in-chief of "religion news service." kevin, a lot of catholics disagreed with how paul ryan applied his catholic faith to his budget plan. >> right, and what's interestin
